    Check your vehicle inventory for open campaigns to ensure repairs are performed before retail sale. Vehicles with campaigns are color-coded for quick visibility.
    Note: Use the "Open Campaign" option in the Filter By drop-down list to view all vehicles in your inventory with open campaigns, or click the Reports button and select the Campaign Report menu option to print a list of vehicles in your inventory with open campaigns.

    • If the text for a vehicle row is in bold red, then it has an open campaign. Move your cursor over the text in the Serial field to view the campaign(s) for the vehicle.
    • If the text for a vehicle row is in bold black, then a repair order has been completed for this vehicle and the campaign repairs have been completed, but the warranty claim is waiting for payment.
    • All vehicles with normal text have no campaign, or have one or more completed campaigns that have been paid by NNA.
